Recall 2017053

The issue

Certain vehicles with factory installed 15-inch tires may fail to comply with the requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 110 - Tire Selection and Rims. The certification label incorrectly states the sidewall height for the rear tires, which is contrary to the requirements of the standard. The rear tire specification on the label should read 195/65 R15. Correction: Dealers will install a new tire information label with correct specifications.

Description (français)

Certains véhicules dotés de pneus de 15 po posés en usine pourraient ne pas satisfaire aux exigences de la norme de sécurité des véhicules automobiles du Canada (NSVAC) 110 - Sélection des pneus et des jantes. Contrairement aux exigences de la norme, la hauteur du flanc des pneus arrière n'est pas correctement indiquée sur l'étiquette de certification. Cette dernière devrait indiquer 195/65 R15 comme spécification des pneus arrière. Mesure corrective : Les concessionnaires devront poser une nouvelle étiquette d'information indiquant la bonne spécification.
